Brentford boss Frank: We need someone to cover Mbeumo

Brentford winger Bryan Mbeumo faces several weeks sidelined with an ankle injury.

Mbeumo broke down in defeat to Brighton.

"It is bad. He'll have a scan later, but we don't know the exact number of weeks he will be out," Brentford manager Thomas Frank said.

"He will definitely not play on Saturday [against Sheffield United]."

He added, "His work rate for the team is incredible - you don't see many wingers who work so hard and mean so much [to their team].

"He has become the key man - 'give me the ball, I'll take this'. Who will that man be now? We'll find out in the next weeks."
